CFV: New Hotspot Group Lead: John Coomes

[Iris Clark]

Hi, David.

Voting did complete and approval announced [0].  As indicated in my message, John's nomination needs to be ratified by the GB as described in Step 4 [1].  At this point, the vote has been called [2,3] and we're waiting for the ratification announcement.

Thanks,
iris

Hi Iris,

Did this vote complete? The census page [1] still shows Paul Hohensee as group lead.
